The Wendi That Dan Knew: Inside Markel’s Final Court Filings
Disclaimer This story is based on Dan Markel’s 2014 family-court filings in Adelson v. Markel (Leon County, Florida). Everything described here comes from Dan’s sworn motions and memoranda. These are allegations he made; they were never adjudicated by a court, because hearings were postponed and Dan was killed before they could be heard. Nothing here should be taken as established fact or judicial finding. In 2014, just months before his murder, Florida State University law professor Dan Markel filed a series of motions in his divorce case with Wendi Adelson. These documents were never adjudicated — the hearings were postponed, and Dan was killed before the court could address them. But what remains are Dan’s own words, sworn and filed, laying out the version of events he wanted the judge to see. In this episode, we walk through those filings in detail. According to Dan, communication with his sons dwindled to almost nothing — just twenty-five minutes of Skype over three months. He alleged that calls were blocked, cut short, or pushed to voicemail. He claimed Wendi ignored court-ordered schedules, withheld addresses when traveling with the children, and cut him out of educational decisions. Dan also raised financial disputes. He alleged undisclosed accounts, understated income, and jewelry and vehicles listed at zero value. He even pointed to a Holocaust-era family ring, sworn to be returned if requested, that he said was withheld when his elderly uncle asked for it back. Beyond parenting and finances, Dan alleged a pattern of litigation tactics he described as obstructive: false testimony, frivolous motions, and discovery battles. To him, these weren’t just disagreements — they were signs of control and concealment. These filings are allegations, not findings. They were Dan’s story, his attempt to document the Wendi he said he had come to know. Tonight, we examine those court papers, what they reveal, and why Dan believed they mattered.

D4VD Death Investigation: She Had His Tattoo. Then She Was Found in His Car. FBI Profiler Weighs In.
D4VD Death Investigation: She Had His Tattoo. Then She Was Found in His Car. FBI Profiler Weighs In. Celeste Rivas and D4vd reportedly had matching “Shhh…” tattoos on their index fingers. That detail alone opens a disturbing window into power dynamics, secrecy, and control. In this segment, FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke joins me to unpack the non-forensic evidence that tells a story: matching tattoos, digital closeness, and the decision to wrap Celeste’s body in plastic and hide her in the trunk of a car. These choices speak volumes. We explore: – How adult predators often mark their victims with shared symbols—tattoos, jewelry, even lyrics – Why body concealment is one of the clearest indicators of post-crime psychological strategy – What it suggests when someone abandons a vehicle with a wrapped body inside – And how grooming over time leads to psychological dependency, isolation, and silence This isn’t just about a car and a body. It’s about behavioral control over a vulnerable teenager and a trail of choices that don’t add up to innocence. As of now, no one has been arrested. The cause of death is pending. But these behavioral markers raise serious, unanswered questions. You can’t ignore the patterns. Because predators rely on everyone else doing just that. 🏷️ Hashtags #D4vd #CelesteRivas #RobinDreeke #BehavioralAnalysis #TrunkDiscovery #FBIProfiler #TrueCrimeBreakdown #GroomingAwareness #ConcealmentBehavior #InvestigationContinues Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Teen Girl Found in D4vd’s Tesla: Timeline of a Deadly Disappearance
Teen Girl Found in D4vd’s Tesla: Timeline of a Deadly Disappearance She vanished in April 2024. She was just 15. For 17 months, Celeste Rivas Hernandez was missing. No breaking news alerts. No press conferences. And then, out of nowhere, she’s found wrapped in plastic in the trunk of a Tesla—a car that had been abandoned in the Hollywood Hills and later linked to music artist D4vd. In this segment, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins me to walk through the full timeline—from the first missing persons report to the shocking discovery in September 2025. We map out how long she was gone, where she was last seen, and how the vehicle sat unnoticed in public view, then at an impound lot, until staff finally opened the trunk after smelling decomposition. We dig into: – The risk factors that make missing teens like Celeste vulnerable to long-term grooming – What post-disappearance patterns of behavior investigators look for in cases like this – Why a car being abandoned and towed without anyone checking it is a massive procedural gap – And how time and silence allow these tragedies to unfold in plain sight As of this recording: no charges have been filed. Cause and manner of death remain undetermined. But the timeline is real. The body is real. And the silence surrounding it is deafening. 🏷️ Hashtags #D4vd #CelesteRivas #MissingTeen #TrunkDiscovery #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #TrueCrime #FBIProfiler #HollywoodHills #InvestigationOngoing Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Fresh Breaks in the D4vd : Celeste Rivas Case & What We Hear in the Kohberger Tapes
Fresh Breaks in the D4vd : Celeste Rivas Case & What We Hear in the Kohberger Tapes 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez was missing for 17 months. Then her body was found wrapped in plastic inside a Tesla registered to music artist D4vd, abandoned in the Hollywood Hills. Bryan Kohberger stabbed four students to death—then calmly walked into Costco hours later, shopping like nothing happened. These are two of the most disturbing cases in recent memory. And in this full episode of Hidden Killers, I sit down with retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to analyze the behavior that reveals what’s really going on beneath the surface. We cover: 🔪 The full Celeste Rivas timeline: from missing person to body in a trunk 🔪 Grooming signs: matching tattoos, shared messages, and behavioral control 🔪 Why no one has been charged in Celeste’s case—and what that means 🔪 Kohberger’s post-murder shopping trip: what investigators read in "normal" behavior 🔪 Survivor interviews: how trauma sounds vs. how the internet twists it 🔪 Community silence: why people didn’t speak up—until it was too late 🔪 What predators count on: your discomfort, your delay, your disbelief Celeste was visible in Discord chats, Twitch streams, and shared screenshots. Kohberger’s every move was caught on surveillance. Yet in both cases, the public missed what mattered most: the behavior. Robin Dreeke brings the FBI’s playbook to the table—no fluff, no conspiracy nonsense, just how trained profilers decode grooming, concealment, and control. 👉 Bryan Kohberger has pleaded guilty and is serving life in prison. 👉 Celeste Rivas is dead. Her cause of death is still pending. No charges have been filed. But the signs were there. And we walk you through every one of them. If you're here for real analysis—not internet guesswork—this is the episode. 🏷️ HASHTAGS #CelesteRivas #D4vd #BryanKohberger #KohbergerVideo #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #FBIProfiler #TrunkDiscovery #PostCrimeBehavior Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
